Which of the following is a run-on sentence? A- while the rain was drenching at times, the fans were dedicated and refused to le
ave. B- the game will be called if the storm continues, the weather is dangerous. C- the players continue to work on both hitting and fielding, allowing them to improve both skillets. D- the game was tied at halftime; each coach gave his team a pep-talk. I think it D?! Please HELP
The correct answer is B, which is indeed a run-on sentence. There are two independent sentences. A period should be placed after the word continues, with a new sentence starting with <em>the weather</em>. The semi-colon in example D is correct, making this a solid (not a run-on) sentence.
The correct answer is B. The game will be called if the storm continues, the weather is dangerous.
A run-on sentence means that two sentences are connected in a grammatically wrong way, usually by writing a comma between them. This is sometimes wrong, as they need to be connected using a conjunction as well. So, in order to fix sentence B, you'd need to write the conjunction <em>and if </em>before <em>the weather is dangerous.</em>
